Héctor Neris was a relief pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels. In 2025 he struck out 35 batters over 26.2 innings across 35 appearances, going 3-2. His ERA of 6.75 was 62.3% higher than the league average of 4.16 — the second worst on his team, and 509th of 542 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.35 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 29.0% of swings (13.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 12.9% of the batters he faced and struck out 28.2%. His -0.2 dbWAR is built from that FIP rather than runs allowed, so it credits him for what he controls and not for the defence behind him.
